Congratulations on being in the top winners spots of our recent contest sponsored by the Wisconsin Flowers and Scenery. Your submissions were excellent and surely qualified for top wins. When your works are voted on by your peers, it is quite an honor to be recognized by fellow artists who admire your art works. Thanks for entering this fun contest, and your winning pieces are displayed on our homepage. This is a special feature which I have only done once before this, but I feel this one of your beauties should have taken first place. I did vote for the top 3, but just, in clear conscience, I had to feature in its own special place, as it is really the best of the best.
